Although I love axew as is and think he's adorable
It wants to evolve
So I'd live for ash and iris to have an intense battle
Using scraggy and axew last
Both simultaneously evolving
Learning new moves and battling it out as fracxure and scrafty
Fraxure winning in the end

This been one of the last episodes in unova
That way it won't really matter if there evolutions are marketable or not

But I can see axew staying as iris' cutey partner
I have no problem with axew staying the way he is
I actually really love axew as he is now
I'd love to see a axew and scraggy episode

The reason why Axew learnt Outrage in this episode is more complex than that. To understand all of this, you should go to a Trainer Yusuf post in Bulbagarden in the thread "the writers do enough with Iris" in the page 25 (it isn't exact). (it's posted just before Cynthia, he thought that Iris wouldn'0t cartch Dragonite).

The main reason why Axew learnt Outrage is because an animator can't contribute the show anymore, that episode would be the last episode that he made and apparently the animator want to do something special before he leaves the show.

If you see, the episode 42 of Best Wishes (Club Battle/Don Battle Part 4) was animated by Takagawa. THis animator is considered the best animator of the Pokemon anime. But he only appears in very few episodes. He did 4 episodes in early BW, with the last of them being that episode. This is apparently the last episode done by him in Best Wishes. Probably because she want to show his animation, he did the animation of Axew attak to make it like a departure.

Because that, the episode was made that way. Take note that starting here, we are going into the episodes produced after the earthquake, who has less money to do them and etc. and an animator with Tamagawa can't eb uin the show because it's so expensive compared to other cheaper animators that use stocked footage.

The attack, to show off, can't be stocked in future episodes. And remember, that if a attack can't be stocked in Best Wishes, you won't be saying the attack many times. That attack can't be used.

Because the animation of Outrage is so expensive, the writers don't want to showcase it. And because it, Axew is only using Dragon Rage except two times that he uses Giga Impact. Cheaper attacks that can be stocked.

Note: although many of us dislike it, if yopu want the attack to play again and again, you have to use the same animation again, again, again, again, again, again.

Never knew that. Thanks for telling us this, it is really interesting.

At first I thought - "what's the problem to animate this attack? Only red eyes and red aura and that's it". But then I remembered that it punches all the time and then it gets confused, so it's very complicated. Well, too bad we won't see this move anymore (probably).

No it was a plot point and nothing else, he used Outrage out of desperation, Iris probably didn't want him to use it again so he hasn't, specially since he hasn't been in any desperate situation or atleat not like that one where he was about to lose but he wanted to win not just for him but for his trainer also.

Oh, that explains that then. Well maybe if they didn't waste so much money on useless episodes where Axew gets lost then maybe they'd have enough money for Outrage... Lol I'm just kidding

I'm guessing that Axew will be like Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Piplup, and there'll be a whole episode about Axew starting to evolve.. Blah, Iris is excited, (Like Dawn was) And is really stupid for not noticing the obvious signs of Axew NOT wanting to evolve. She'll get an ever stone or something, there'll be a big emotional moment, Axew and Iris will hug, and then she'll say something like this: "I want you to stay my Axew forever! We can get stronger, no matter what you are!"

That's what I think it's going to happen. Iris is supposed to go back to Opleucid City to take over the Gym so maybe Axew
will evolve around the time she heads back. Which will probably be the last episode of BW2 Da.

But they are going to kanto, so how is iris going to go Right to opelucid?

It isn't strange at all. He became a markettable mascot like Oshawott, so they won't make him evolve anymore, for no in-universe reason at all.

It's not a question of 'became marketable'. The writers wouldn't have picked him if they weren't certain if they couldn't turn him into a big moneymaking machine either way. Whatever has happened has been planned for in advance. It's Axew's silent dream, nobody really knows about it, so it's logical that he doesn't feel forced to evolve quickly, being the infant that it is.

Answer to all the bad things in the world: Give up on trying to make everything better. Hence, accepting it for what it is. YOLO! <- Click the link and daw.. -.-
